This repository contains Dockerfile of MongoDB for Docker's trusted build published to the public Docker Registry.

2. Download trusted build from public Docker Registry: docker pull dockerfile/mongodb

   (alternatively, you can build an image from Dockerfile: docker build -t="dockerfile/mongodb" github.com/dockerfile/mongodb)

Usage

Run mongod

docker run -d -p 27017:27017 --name mongodb dockerfile/mongodb

Run mongod w/ persistent/shared directory

docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -v <data-dir>/db:/data/db --name mongodb dockerfile/mongodb

Run mongod w/ HTTP support (requires firewall on port 28017)

docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -p 28017:28017 --name mongodb dockerfile/mongodb mongod --rest --httpinterface

Run mongo

docker run -it --rm --link mongodb:mongodb dockerfile/mongodb bash -c 'mongo --host $MONGODB_PORT_27017_TCP_ADDR'

Usage with VirtualBox (boot2docker-vm)

You will need to set up nat port forwarding with:

VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "guestmongodb,tcp,127.0.0.1,27017,,27017"  

This will allow you to connect to your mongo container with the standard 'mongo' commands
